The 2 fish come came in from Peru one came in as aff juruensis and the other was a by catch and i hope i have a pair.
However if you look closely the lateral line runs in above the caudal spot and only joins at the top of caudel spot with one scale.
I'm confused, do cacatuoides normally show a distinct break before the caudal spot? It seems to me that the females I have now definitely do show a distinct caudal spot.
I also find it interesting that the female shows a lateral spot and not a lateral line in threat display.
Is this the same group of fish that Microman (Mark) had a male from which had a clear break of the lateral line before the caudal?
The mouth doesn't look very big for a cacatuoides
Anyway as I said before Peter, I like the wild fish over the bright stuff and they look superb.
